Saw a guy about a week ago down the beach spinning his arms around like a windmill before going for a surf. I mean really spinning fast mimicking paddling. Now Ive seen some kooky warm up exercises over the years but since when do you need to warm up to paddle?

The Sport you say? ... who else on the inter webs and beyond cares?... no, seriously, I'm interested.
Hurley? why?
Which council?

Well the Australian Open was a bit of a conceit based on the US Open at Huntington

Prime movers included IMG, Hurley, Billabong, Destination NSW and the then Manly Council. This was a few years back.

They envisaged an event that was more Culture than Sport. Music, skate, art, blah blah blah

It was set at North Steyne in February. The first year or so it got by on novelty. Various tricks of the trade were tried.

I think over time the whole thing was exposed by itself. "Culture" in this context is a con. It fell back on Sport, but this was a shit QS6000 in North Steyne February beachbreaks, two weeks before a CT at Snapper.

In the end nobody thought it mattered enough to save it.

what was that faux film critic's line from a cartoon show you mentioned somewhere else? ' I'd quote it here.

Seriously though, sad, but true. Who really gives a fcuk about the 'culture' of surfing in the context of any public exposition aside from sponsors and flaky hangers on?
I haven't seen anything about the outcome of that naff Surfing World festival down the coast from a couple of months back.
What did it achieve?

The only thing worse than the Australian Open was those ridiculous airshows they used to have. I think they had one in Bondi when I was living there and I chose to slam my dick in my front door rather than watch it.
